Stroke: Improving stroke care in the ER(Post Date: 4/8/14)

Loading the player...

What can be done to improve stroke care in emergency departments with existing drugs and technologies? That's the question we put to three stroke neurologists -- Natalia Rost, MD, MPH, of Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston; M. Shazam Hussain, MD, of the Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland; and Jeffrey Saver, MD, of the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine in Los Angeles -- whose answers included cutting door-to-needle times and regular meetings to review procedures.

This survey is a poll of those who choose to participate and are, therefore, not valid statistical samples, but rather a snapshot of what your colleagues are thinking.
